We have had a wonderful experience using Douglas Macarthur as our estate agent. He has gone the extra mile for us and nothing was too much trouble. He is well connected with various trade personnel and was able to organise our home for sale in a remarkably short time. He has a very pleasant and straight forward personality and a realist with regard to what the current market will bear. We have known Douglas for many years and even before we were considering selling our Cheltenham house he was regularly in touch with us regarding the Cheltenham/Beecroft market. We had the greatest confidence in his ability to make our sale and he did not disappoint. We would strongly recommend his services to would be sellers or buyers. Virginia and Dick Groot Obbink

Our whole experience in buying our new home with Douglas MacArthur was a pleasure. A dedicated man with a warm and friendly approach to his clients was evident upon meeting him. We would heartily recommend this genuinely nice man in any real estate situation. It was an absolute pleasure to work with him.

From the initial meeting through to the sale of the property, Douglas was very professional. His market knowledge is excellent and he provided us with feedback regarding potential buyers in a prompt and succinct manner. We recommend Douglas to anyone who may consider selling their property.

We were extremely happy and privileged to have Douglas manage the entire transaction. His management, suggestions, and actions made the process quite seamless. His regular reports and advise were top notch and achieved a good result for us in a falling and difficult market.

We have known Douglas for many years and his knowledge, particularly of the Beecroft/Cheltenham area is excellent. He is great to deal with, honest and straight talking and the whole process was smooth and simple with the desired result.

I found Douglas from Douglas Macarthur Realty to be totally professional in his approach to the sale process, well informed in regard to the property and the market, willing to assist when additional information was requested regarding the property and quickly responded to all enquires.

I wish to record my deep gratitude for the magnificent effort made by Douglas Macarthur concerning the sale of my investment property. Douglas was familiar with the property and had always been willing to give valuable advice regarding its upkeep and presentation . When I made the decision to sell I was anxious that Douglas should be involved and was delighted when he agreed. From the moment the property was placed on the market Douglas was indefatigable in its promotion. He was present at each of the six advertised “Open House” occasions and was always happy to oblige when clients have wanted to return for a private second look. He spent literally many hours in responding to ‘phone calls from interested viewers and in keeping me informed of the intricacies of the way the property was “tracking” during the lead-up to the auction date. Largely as a result of the friendly, efficient and frankly honest way Douglas presented the property a significant number of the registered bidders took part in the auction and a very pleasing price, well above the reserve, was achieved. It is no wonder so many of Douglas’s clients become his friends. Arthur Baillie. (18. 11. ’21)

We were able to establish trust and rapport with Douglas from the first inspection. His genuine character comes through naturally and he is passionate about helping buyers find their property.

Doug did an outstanding job under extremely difficult circumstances. He was able to communicate with multiple parties, was always professional, genuine, calm (even when I wasn't) and helpful. I would highly recommend Doug for any sale or purchase.

Douglas knows the market like back of his hand, but more importantly, he is a genuine person who you can freely chat with. He's not itching to get out the door while in the middle of a conversation with you, he let's the conversation naturally end, as you would with a friend. There are times during your campaign where you really start feeling the stress, and you will voice this to him. He does not let this affect his professionalism and in a level-headed fashion, continues to steer the ship providing realistic confidence. I have met many agents, but none like Douglas. Highly recommend.

Douglas is a fabulous agent who made the process of purchasing our first home as easy as possible. He is attentive and always there to answer questions no matter the time. He goes above and beyond for his buyers and I have no doubt, the same for his vendors. His approach to selling which is through genuine helpfulness, creates a comfortable and trusting relationship with buyers. As a result, there was an incredible turn-out on auction day and the sales results speak for themselves.
